He fronted numerous bands throughout his career, including Elf, Rainbow, Black Sabbath, Dio and Heaven & Hell. Following his departure from Rainbow in 1979, Dio joined Black Sabbath, replacing the fired Ozzy Osbourne. Dio met Sabbath guitarist Tony Iommi by chance at the Rainbow on Sunset Strip in Los Angeles in 1979. The two musicians were in similar situations, as Dio was seeking a new project and Iommi needed a vocalist. On the first day, the duo wrote the song "Children of the Sea," which appeared on the Heaven and Hell album being released in 1980 and is now regarded as one of the most iconic rock albums of the 80’s. The follow-up album, Mob Rules (1981), featured new drummer Vinny Appice. Personality conflicts began emerging within the band. In 1982, conflict arose over the mixing of the Live Evil album. Iommi asserted that the album's engineer began complaining to him that he would work all day long on a mix, only to have Dio return to the studio at night to "do his own mix" in which his vocals were more prominent. The conflict led to Dio and Appice ultimately quitting the band later that year. In 1991, Dio returned to Black Sabbath to record the Dehumanizer album. The album was a minor hit, reaching the Top 40 in the United Kingdom and #44 on the US Billboard 200. The single "Time Machine" was featured in the movie Wayne's World, the tenth highest-grossing film of 1992. Close to the end of 1992, Dio and Appice again left the band, citing an inability to work with Iommi and Butler. Ronnie James Dio sadly passed away on May 16, 2010 "

Most of us can say "I was there when they were writing the book of Rock" Well, while the rest of the world enjoyed the growing ripple effect of Woodstock during the late 60's and 70's, South Africa was largely cut off due mostly to the apartheid regime. So, although not directly involved with the exploding phenomena of Rock, and unbeknown to the rest of the globe, this country down at the bottom end of Africa was busy adding their chapters to the pages of Rock History. Some of the artists recorded albums and then disappeared into the woodwork, but a lot are still around today in some or other form. One thing though is certain, they will all forever remain in song. Who were these Pioneers fueling the Rock flame in this segregated country in the late 60"s and 70"s? Tonight we explore the PIONEERS OF SOUTH AFRICAN ROCK so lets rewind to the 60s 70s and 80s" "Circus Bernie Millar on Vocals, Ronald "Bones" Brettell at Keyboards, Gary van Zyl doing Bass, Sandy Robbie on Guitar and Wally Cullis on Drums Circus ruled in South Africa's wildcat club culture of the mid-1970s - an original band, with a theatrical approach to their songwriting. Everything they touched in their glorious 30-month run from 1976-8 set a new level of excitement in the biggest clubs of the Reef and the Coast. They stayed true to themselves, and wound up broken by the SABC's Tannie morality and the profit motive of the record companies. Sipho "Hotstix" Mabuse Sipho Cecil Peter Mabuse (born 2 November 1951), known professionally as Sipho "Hotstix" Mabuse, After dropping out of school in the 1960s, Mabuse got his start in the Afro-soul group the Beaters in the mid-1970s. After a successful tour of Zimbabwe they changed the group's name to Harari, an afrosoul band led by Mabuse. When they returned to their homeland in South Africa they began to draw almost exclusively on American-style funk, soul, and pop music, sung in Zulu and Sotho as well as English. Clout Clout was a South African rock group formed in Johannesburg in 1977, best known for their hit single, "Substitute". Originally all-female, the group later included some male musicians, who had played as session musicians on the recording cindy alter The Helicopters South African pop/rock band formed in Vereeniging in the early 1980s by singer/songwriter Bernard Binns.

The saxophone player in their line-up gives them some sort of extravagance. For 15 years now, the Swabian six-member band combines classical rock elements with modern effects, but without leaving behind the typical unique Human Zoo style. In the year 2004 singer Thomas Seeburger, keyboarder Zarko Mestrovic and guitarist Ingolf Engler got together with only one goal - "Pure Rock". In autumn 2005 Boris Matakovic (Subway) on the saxophone completed the band. The position on the bass was occupied by changing musicians in the following years until Ralf Grespan joined the band in 2012. Also the drum players changed some times until Matthias Amann joined the band in 2022. The highly celebrated debut album ` Precious Time ` (2006), astonished the press as well as the public in many places. Human Zoo was elected as “Newcomer of the year 2006” in German magazine Rock It! . Just 16 months after the release of the debut album, the second, very strong longplayer "Over The Horizon" was released on 28th September 2007. The third album "Eyes Of The Stranger" marks a further milestone in the career for Human Zoo. The songwriting here combines classical rock elements with modern effects, but without leaving behind the typical Human Zoo style. Human Zoo has been awarded the INNOCENT AWARD 2016 by the Cute And Dangerous – magazine for their last album ` My Own God `. The new, fifth album was released just in time for the twentieth anniversary on June 14th, 2024 under the title “ECHOES BEYOND”. "

With bass player Terry Horbury and drummer John Lee completing the line-up, they drew inspiration from Bad Company, the Faces, Black Sabbath and Deep Purple. However, they never graduated from support status, as their attempt to bridge the divide between hard rock and heavy metal was handicapped by weak material Dirty Tricks made its San Antonio debut at a Southside bar known as Randy’s Rodeo late in 1974, to rave reviews. It was there that they debuted songs from the upcoming album and finished the crowd off with an explosive version of the Kinks’ “You Really Got Me”, a year before Van Halen released their first album with that same song. The debut self-titled album was produced by Black Sabbath / Budgie / Judas Priest legend Rodger Bain. They released another two albums on Polydor Records during the mid-70s that failed to reflect the energy they generated in a live setting. In 1976 Andy Beirne took over as drummer, but the band was soon overwhelmed by the growing punk movement. Beirne later joined Grand Prix, Terry Horbury teamed up with speed metal outfit Vardis and guitarist John Fraser Binnie was recruited by Rogue Male in 1984. "

The band consisted of Bill Bartlett (guitar and lead vocals), Howie Arthur Blauvelt (bass), Pete Charles (drums), and Myke Scavone (lead vocals). Bill Bartlett went on from the Lemon Pipers to form a group called Starstruck. . While in Starstruck, Bartlett took Lead Belly's 59 second long "Black Betty" and arranged, recorded and released it . "Black Betty" became a regional hit, then was picked up by producers in New York who formed a group around Bartlett called Ram Jam. They re-released the song, and it became a hit nationally. . Even though the song was credited to Huddie Ledbetter, the NAACP and Congress of Racial Equality called for a boycott due to the lyrics. The boycott failed, however, and "Black Betty" reached number 18 on the singles chart in 1977 in the U.S., top ten in the UK Singles Chart and Australia, and number 46 in Canada, while the Ram Jam album reached the U.S. top 40. Their subsequent album Portrait of the Artist as a Young Ram achieved little success, despite the addition of Long Island, New York, lead guitarist Jimmy Santoro. "

Surely, MTV played a significant role in turning bands like Guns N’ Roses, L.A. Guns, Ratt, Great White and others into household names and it wouldn’t be an exaggeration if we pointing down that Los Angeles and especially Sunset Strip was the…Mecca of a genre that transformed through the years from a glam metal incarnation to a more sleaze and street inception that became popular after 1987 and the release of Guns N’ Roses’ milestone record “Appetite For Destruction”. Like it happens in every musical trend, there were those unsung heroes that didn’t make it in the first league and remained virtually under the radar of all those multinational record labels. We are talking about hundreds of bands that released their songs in limited quantities through independent labels or even worse couldn’t get to the next level and the songs stayed in a demo stage. But this doesn’t mean that they were less talented than the more heralded acts of the genre. As a matter of fact, some of them were actually pioneers of the genre but for a number of reasons remained unknown to the masses; they remained the glorious underdogs!

Roberts and bass-player Ray St. Michael, in the Maryland area. With the addition of vocalist Rick Thomas and guitar-wizard Don De Olivera, the band was complete and ready to Rock. Their first homemade demos of ’87 had a raw, naïve charm that displayed the kind of potential that should have seen the major label record companies lining up, but it’s with their very first professional demo called “Grounded For Life” that the band showed their commercial appeal, taking on a new, overtly polished direction. Local radio and media support led the band to appear on the 1987 compilation called ’97 Underground Beast From The East Vol. 1′, with the song “Nightmares”. Compared to bands like White Lion, Danger Danger and Trixter, MONA LISA delivers some cool ’80s American melodic hard rock on these recordings. After a successful start to their career with the 1988 EP “Grounded for Life”, the band got a publishing agent, and played the club circuit, both as opening-act and as headliner. Then in 1990 MONA LISA recorded their debut album, “The Art Of Seduction”, self-released the next year only on cassette format. The album featured songs that have a Melodic Rock feel with a Metal sheen, recalling the style that bands like White Lion, Van Halen and Danger Danger was carrying around, in a time when acts like Metallica and Skid Row were all-rage. Tracks like ‘Name Of Rock’, ‘Dirty Girl’ and ‘Angry Child’ are pure candies for the Melodic Rock / Hair Metal lovers, a sound that bands like Skid Row were pushing forward in the late Eighties. Unfortunately this had been the last effort from this fine band, as they disbanded in 1992. After this, drummer L. A. Roberts and guitarist Don DeOliveira put together a new band called TATTOO TAXI, and they released another great cassette-EP ‘Pedal To The Metal’ during 1993. "

The first recordings were made with the Belgian singer Tigo 'Tiger' Fawzi, for the album Look Like Hell. He was briefly followed by Thijs Hamelaers. In 1989 the Beez got more stability by recruiting the English vocalist Andrew Elt, who previously sang in Gin On The Rocks. They cut the successful Screwed Blued & Tattooed LP which broke them in the US, and they took up as opening act for Skid Row. In the early nineties momentum slowed for the band, which increasingly found that the musical tide had turned, and there was less demand for glam metal bands. Meanwhile, popularity overseas particularly in Japan remained strong and the band toured there in 1995. A live album was released that same year. In 1996, Koster, who for years had struggled with a wrist injury announced that he could not continue. At this point the band fell apart. They reformed in 2010. The band supported Aerosmith alongside Stone Temple Pilots. "
